Does this app offer route planning?

One thing that would make any motorcycling app the dogs bollocks would be routing with full weather integration.
Plenty of websites publish rain radar info and some extrapolate for 3 hours ahead.

I keep searching for a weather app that could to do this.
If a rain band intersects with your route, even better if it does so at a time when you're likely to be there, it could then warn you &/or attempt to re-route around it, or suggest a location for you to stop and get a coffee to avoid getting drenched.

This kind of app would be great for when away from home (touring etc).
Haven't the Poms discovered the Metric system yet?
It wasn't discovered, it was invented, by the French..
Hence why we have a healthy disrespect for it.

Nope, no route planning. Tbh that's above my ability at this point anyway.
Sent feedback via the app, but when in the Garage and you press the back button on the phone, the app crashes.
I think I found that bug, thanks. Looks like I hadn't checked there was a bike added before trying to save the TaxDue month.

The group riding thing will more likely be a new app... once I learn how to do it.

It would be done through data. Everyone would need to register in one way or another, you group up and each persons location data would be uploaded and shared to others in that group. In theory it shouldn't be that hard.
The key question for me is Could it be used to prosecute me in the highly unlikely event that I did something illegal ??
Just downloaded it and will provide feedback asap
